Hello
Navigating among existential and emotional issues poses challenges that may disrupt optimal living on a daily basis and I am glad that you have taken the first step to reach out for help!
My name is Dr. Claribel Perez, better known as Dr. Claire. I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Certified Clinical Sex Therapist in Florida. Feel free to take a look at my profile to learn more about my professional background and approach.
My counseling style has been recognized as caring, structured, resourceful, supportive, and empathic. My approach involves building a relationship and focusing on the exploration of your personal strengths to help overcome any current issues; furthermore, to help you unfold a healthy sense of self to empower you towards a positive self-actualization and self-fulfillment. I combine cognitive behavioral therapy with a humanistic and psycho-educational approach to help clients accomplish their therapeutic goals.
I will help you navigate through challenging or negative thoughts and feelings, and I extend to you a safe space to share more about yourself without fearing any judgment.
In the first session, I focus on learning more about you and your current situation by providing my listening ear; the space and time will be all yours to share. Also, I will collaborate with you on developing goals that tailor to your specific interests while offering emotional support and guidance along the way. Keep in mind that goals may be modifiable according to your progress and also according to your needs.
Overall, my utmost approach is to provide you a non-judgmental therapeutic experience that includes empowerment, emotional support, guidance and healing. I use a collaborative approach, which means working together alongside with your participation, in order to identify your personal strengths and goals that pertain to your specific needs.
Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started! You are not alone in your journey towards empowerment, healing, and learning; and I am fully committed to provide insights and instrumental tools that will support your goals.
Thank you and I look forward to working with you.
Stay well!
~ Dr. Claire
